What is this all about?

All members must complete the training every three years. The current deadline by which all REALTORS® must take the training is December 31, 2021. The Texas Real Estate Commission Legal II course required to renew your license no longer satisfies the NAR requirement for REALTOR® Code of Ethics training. This change was adopted by the NAR Board of Directors in 2019.

If you completed TREC Legal II in 2019 OR the NAR-approved ethics training in 2019-2021: You have completed the NAR requirement for the current cycle that ends on December 31, 2021.

If you did not complete TREC Legal II in 2019 OR another NAR-approved ethics training in 2019 or 2020: You must complete NAR Code of Ethics training by December 31, 2021.

If you have questions, contact MetroTex Member Services at membership@dfwre.com or call (214) 540-2745.

I think I already did this. How do I check?

Why is this different than before?

In a change adopted by the NAR Board of Directors in 2019, all members must complete the training every three years. The current deadline by which all REALTORS® must take the training is December 31, 2021. The Texas Real Estate Commission Legal II course required to renew your license no longer satisfies the NAR requirement for REALTOR® Code of Ethics training.

But I took Legal II!

The Texas Real Estate Commission Legal II course required to renew your license no longer satisfies the NAR requirement for REALTOR® Code of Ethics training.

If you took TREC Legal II in 2019 OR the NAR-approved ethics training in 2019-2021, you have completed the requirement for December 31, 2021. Otherwise you must complete NAR Code of Ethics training by December 31, 2021.

What about my New Member Orientation?

If you’ve taken MetroTex New Member Orientation in 2019, 2020, or 2021, you have satisfied the requirement. Not sure if you’re covered? Check your status.
